This is the place that you're going to put your strongest point." Investors form impressions in the first minute. Don't bury your best evidence. If you have incredible traction, lead with it. If you have a unique insight, lead with that. Ryan Hoover: "I do spend time challenging founders sometimes when they're thinking about raising... to not raise."
